northern land will produce wheat. Those
interested In these enterprises have not
merely examined the soil and pronounced
1t fertile, and looked over It's extent, and
said 1t WAS large, and from that data estim.
ated that 1t would yield enough to pay for
the building Of these roads. 4 But the soil
has been put to the test in tho natural
way. II has been tried, and It has proven
most aatis tactory. It Is the identical kind
OF soil as that In Northern Minnesota. It
Is the same plain extending from the
source Of the Mississippi northward and
westward to the Red River, and down

Athletics and Woman h 0od.

1t has been suggested to us that the
effect of the athletic exercises now COM
mon among girls, if these are really
beneficial, should have begun to appear
in the physique of women of the present
day, and to show itself in greater fitness
for the duties of maternity. Medical
men in practice might, no doubt, throw
some light on this question. To our
own mind there seems good reason to
believe in the generally beneficial effect
of all such means of educating muscular
power, if they be used in moderation.
Besides their intrinsic property of in
creasing vigor and agility, they necessi-
tate greater freedom from the rigid re-
straints of dress which were used twenty
years ago They imply, moreover, a
liberal allowance of fresh air, and, by
encouraging vital changes throughout
the body, combat that dislike of food
which is so common among young girls
of iistless habits; thus in various ways
their tendency is to strengthen and
stimulate the whole system. There can,
we think, be little doubt that the woman
who has grown up under this wholesale
training is the filter in consequence to
bear the lot of her sex in married life.
Her nerves will be stronger, her muscle
power greater, and each natural function
proportionateiy more active.-4he Lam

AWounded Mans Nerve.

A few days ago Isaac Lane, a well.
known farmer residing one mile west of
Mount Healthy, in this county, met
with an accident which threatened to
end his life. He was out in the barn,
when he fell on the prongs of q pitch
fork, which penetrated his leg just be-
low the thigh. One of the prongs had
broken off in his leg, as he supposed.
Two physicians were summoned, who
made an examination of the wound. but
they failed to locate the piece Of steel.
They probed the small opening, but
could discover nothing, and at once
came TO the conclusion that Mr.. Lane
was mistaken. They insisted that the
broken prong mnst be somewhere in the
barn, and some of the boys on the place
were sent to look for II, but they could
not find it. Mr.. Lane persisted that the
piece of fork was still in his leg, which
was swollen and very painful.
A day or two after the occurrence Mr..
Lane put his hand on the underside of
his leg and felt some hard substance.
Without waiting to summon q doctor
he, with remarkable fortitude, took his
knife and cut hole in the place where
the hard substance seemed to be. He
made deep incision, and running his
fingers into the opening, caught hold OF
something and pulled it out. 1t proved
to be the prong of the pitchfork. and
was over six inches in length. 1t bad
taken q diagonal course. and eluded the
surgeons probe. Mr.. Lane at once expe-
rienced relief and will soon be himself
again. The pluck displayed in acting as
his own surgeon has challenged the ad-
miration of his friends, and the strange
accident with its result, is the talk Of
Mount Healthy. x Cincinxati Enquirsr.

An Absent-Mfn ed Senator.

Senator Camden, of West Virginia, is
probably the most absent.minded man
in public life. Not long ago Senator
Eustis, of Louisiana, gave an elaborate
dinner, to which Camden was invited.
He accepted and went. A day or two
afterward he happened to see the invita-
tion upon his desk. Turning to his pri.
vate secretary, he remarked that he
owed Eustis most humble apology for
neglecting to reply, and said he intended
to square himself without delay. The
Secretary looked up with an amused
smile, and said that he didn't see any
great necessity for apologizing, state.
ment that at once arrested the Senator's
attention. Then the Secretary quietly
inquired: "Senator, why do you pro-
pose to apologize to MIR. Eustis! Don't
you remember that you went to his dim
ner and came home and said that you
had an elegant time ?" After thinking
Tor moment Camden did remember
that he had been the guest of his col
league, and it is perhaps unnecessary to
add that he didn't apologize.
Another incident happened in the SEN
ate Chamber just before the opening OF
the session. The Senator was busy at
his desk looking over his correspondence,
when a gentleman entered and shock
him by the hand. Camden had puz
zled look upon his face, but he conversed
with the visitor for some little time.
When the gentleman left, the Senator
turned around and said to Mr.. Kenna,
his colleague, "John, who is that young
fellow?" Kenna replied, "Great Scott,
Camden, that is the young lieutenant
who is going to marry your daughter
next week" A few evenings ago Cam.
den thought he would go to the theatre.
As it was raining he borrowed an um.
brella from his private secretary and
marched down the street. When he
returned his secretary was astonished to
see him come into the house dripping
with rain and his new silk hat all but
ruined. Camden had walked home in
the storm without his umbrella, simply
because he had forgotten that he had
carried one to the theatre. The Sena.
tor knows his weakness. but he is appar.
emily unable to cope successfully with

Tiny Tokens.

The murmur of waterfall
A mile away.
The rustic when robin lights
Upon spray.
The tapping OF a lowland stream
On dipping boughs,
The sound OF grazing from herd
OF gentle cows,
The echo from wooded hill
OF cuckoo's call,
The culver through the meadow grass
At evening fall;
Too subtitle al these harmonies
For pen aad rule;
Such music is not understood
BY any school;
But when the brain IL overwrouyht,
1t hath a spell
Beyond all human skill and power
To make it well.
The memory OF kindly word
For long gone BY,
The fragrance of a fading flower
Set lovingly,
The cleaning of sudden smile
Or sudden tea-,
The warmer pressure OF the hand,
The tone OF cheer,
The hush that IN cans, III cannot speak,
but / have heard"
The note that only bears q verse
From Gods own Word;
Such tiny things we hardly count
As ministry,
The givers deeming they have shown
Scent sympathy;
But when the heart is overwrought.
Ol, who can tell
The power OF such tiny things
TO make 1t well?

Engineer Mary $. brennan.

The Board of Inspectors of Stationary
Engineers have granted to Miss Mary 5.
Brennan the FIRST license to run an en-
gine, ever issued to a lady in the United
States, if rot in the world. Miss Bren.
non is Cincinnati lady, and is the
matron of the st. Auburn Young Lady's
Institute. She is refined and inteili-
gent young lady, a college graduate,
and from her neat appearance and cul.
tured conversation, she is the last per.
son in the world that would be taken for
o practical engineer. In speaking of tue
license, she said:
"Physcs and mechanics always were
favorite study of mine. tried to
master the study of mechanics, and as
my love for the science grew, l began to
long for practice in preference to theory.
My desire to gain the knowledge led me
to frequent the boiler-room. We for
merly had SO much trouble with the
heating of the building that I deter
mined to remedy the bother, and last
summer l went to the boiler-room, and
during my inspection found crack in
the plate and asked that the boiler be
repaired. The boiler was formerly un.
der the building, but did not like the
location, 80 1 drew plans and diagram
and had it taken out from under the
building and placed under one of the
porches, was compelled to give my
personal attention to the heating of the
house, and SO concluded to have the
machinery fixed to suit me. When the
repairs were finished, resolved to take
entire charge Of the boiler, and went be
fore the Board of Inspectors and was
examined and obtained license.
have fireman who does the firing for
me. If he is away, l start the fires and
raise steam, myself. We only use ten
pounds of steam in heating the building
and sometimes it runs down to two
pounds. have steam gauge on the
second floor, and can tell at any time
Just how much steam we are carrying.
1 am delighted with the duties, and be-
lieve I would like to devote my entire
time to boilers and machinery"
Mr.. E, D. Bateman, the inspector
who examined Miss Brennan, said: 81
was amused when she applied for Ii
cense, as l had never heard of lady
having been granted license to run an
engine. The, examination was a very
rigid one. I asked her the area of the
steampipe. and she answered in min.
ute. She quickly told me how to set
the safety-valve to blow off at any de.
sired horse power. In fact she an
swered the questions about as fast as l
could ask them, and l couldn't help but
give her a license. I know of no law
debarring her on account of her sex, and
l believe she could have compelled me
to give her a license under the law if
had refused. "-CincinnaG Commercial

IT WAS A GENUINE RAT.
Gratitude of a Wife when Sh
Found a Live One.

The recent experience of awell. known
East Buffalo stock man. as told by him.
self, is calculated to enlist interest and
sympathy. A couple of his teeth be-
came badly liberated, and the way IN
which they ached was enough to make
cast iron man howl. A common re-.
sort in such cases is to the flowing bowl,
and deep were the potations imbibed by
the sufferer in this instance, but to no
effect, as the intensity of the pain coun.
teracted the soothing qualities of the
benzine. His estimable wife pitied him
for his misfortune, and viewed with
anxious concern the industry with
which be kept filling up. He betook
himself to the dentist, but that func.
tionary declared that the tusks could
not be yanked till the liberation had
broken. Nothing could be done, and
finding comfort nowhere else, the victim
about 10 o'clock in the evening raced
home. He entered the house by the
kitchen side door, and as he did SO in
rushed rat of enormous size. Here
was something to divert his attention
from his own misery, and in q twinkling
he picked up heavy poker and pur-
sueo the rodent. The rat ran through
the dining.room and parlor and into
down. stairs bedroom, where the stock.
mans better half, in her robe de mutt,
had just mounted a chair to turn off the
gas. She didn't happen to see the in
vading animal, and her CONSERVATION
can be imagined when she did see her
seemingly frenzisd husband bound in,
with boots, overcoat and cap still on,
and bang with the poker right and left.
She sought to reason with him, but he
only replied: "I'll get that rat, if die
for him." Oh, my dear. there's no rat"
she plaintively objected. but he kept
right on with his antics, struck savagely
at some of her clothing which lay on q
lounge, and the next moment held up
the carcass CT the rat. now defunct. The
wife looked at it, and then, with mex.
pressible feeling, exclaimed: "Thank
Heaven! there was rat, after ALL" 1t

cited exertion broke the tooth ulcera.

nights rest, and the sunshine fills his
home once more.
